A little something we threw together at this last year’s Eastern Balboa Championships (the final one, hence the “E.B.C.” mentioned at the end credits.)

So what or who is E.B.C.?
Ooops! Sorry: that’d be the Eastern Balboa Championships.
So I’m guessing you would have let Jack Helwig into the bar, he of the Venice Beach dance clip (see head flips at 1:28, 1:32, 2:40 etc)…and make sure you have the name of a good surgeon to work on your future spinal surgeries. And is there a future ABW class where we learn to dance on our toes like Jack???
Jack Helwig? Shiiiiiit. He started the club.
I’ve done some classes on Jack on-the-toe-stuff before. Has to be the right audience — not every student cares about replicating Jack’s style. But the next time you’re at a camp of ours, let me know in advance and I might be able to cook something up especially. Love me some Jack.
SO GOOD
Swing Kid walks into a bar. Goes ‘OWWW!’. It was an iron bar. Thanks, you’ve been a great crowd, I’ll get me coat.
Great vid!
